Desperate Needs

Mergers & Acquisitions, Book 2

By: C. D. Gorri

Narrated by: Elle Sonali, Mick Fanning

Everyone has needs. But can he acknowledge his?

Connor

I’ve had to crawl through the muck to rebuild my family’s name after my father all but destroyed us. I’ve spilled blood, burned through hours, and poured my soul into this business with a singular focus.

To get back what we lost, and then some. The Callahan name used to evoke respect. Those who don’t remember who I am will learn soon.

Real soon.

Once I take down the top security firm in the country, I’ll be right where I need to be. I just have to prove their weakness. Everything is ready. Almost.

I just need one more piece of info. But lucky for me, I know where to get it. I just didn’t know this cute, little redhead was going to storm into my life and wreck it like a hurricane. Now I have a decision to make.

Keep my little darling or destroy her father’s company.

Clementine

The second I saw Connor Callahan it was like a red flag went up inside my brain.

Fifteen years older than me, and sexier than any man has a right to be, this tatted up businessman is everything I never knew I wanted. And even better, he seems to want me back.

Keeping our meetings on the down low is difficult when your family tree is filled with the kind of people I have hanging on every branch.

He makes me feel so special. And I know there’s got to be another reason he is seeking me out, but I’m too wrapped up in my own desperate yearnings to see it.

Are needs, no matter how desperate, good enough reason to fall in love?

Clementine and Connor

Desperate Needs is the second book in the Mergers & Acquisitions series. Clementine and Connor meet and have a one night stand. Then things start to get very interesting. Get ready for a wild ride. There are secrets, lies, danger, suspense and intrigue.
The dual narration by Elle Sonali and Mick Fanning was brilliant. They portrayed these characters perfectly. I highly recommend listening.

Binge Mode Activated

Oh, I really enjoyed this second book in the series! It turned into a total binge-listen because I simply couldn’t stop. The pacing, the emotion, the tension — it all kept me hooked. That teaser for book 3 at the end that has me eager!

Great story

What starts out as a business transaction,ends with the love of his life. This book has a love story, as well as, betrayal and obsession. The audio is really good.

love

This book just blew my mind. I love how passionate Connor and Clementine are. Their chemistry can be felt through the pages of this book. There's nothing that Connor wouldn't do to keep Clementine by his side once he decided she was it for him. Clementine was no weeping willow. She's a strong, intelligent woman who can protect herself. I can't wait to read more from the grown children of the Wild Billionaire series. Their love stories are just as romantic as their parents. C.D. Gorri writes stories that just capture your attention as well as your heart as you read her books.#
The audio book is very well done with Elle Sonali and Mick Fanning as duel narrators. Their narration brings out the passion and obsession the characters are feeling out load. It adds to an already fantastic story.

Oh my Darling Clementine!

I read this book and it was my favorite in the series.
Now to listen to the story was wicked good.
The Narrators doing a great job of bring this story to life, and its intense.

Clementine is the daughter of Josef Aziz but she is not a fool or someone to mess with.
Connor is out to rebuild his family name, He has his mark in his sights, but…
the feisty redhead may give as good as she gets.

Will Clementine get the love of a lifetime her mother and father have or will everything crash and burn? Sexy, Action-packed, and emotional. LOVED this one!
